Just an aussie bloke making games. I made these:

Obliterator-X: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3271720/ObliteratorX/
Bilkins' Folly: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1526370/Bilkins_Folly/
Pinned
After a long hiatus from social media, I've finally set up a Bluesky account. I'll be posting stuff from my game dev journey here.

In other news, my latest game Obliterator X is part of Steam's Next Fest. Play the demo at store.steampowered.com/app/3552770/...

Leaving the base for the first time in O-X always brings a smile to face 🙂

If you're wondering - Joe from Psycroptic wrote the soundtrack🤘

Rarer looted guns in O-X come with special perks which can make for... interesting combos.

Silenced miniguns anyone? (sound on)

an update to my earlier #screenshotsaturday post. I've spent all day adding a bunch of outlines to a bunch of animations in Obliterator-X

I think this goes a long way in helping keep things clearer in those hectic moments!

I'm thinking about adding black outlines to all the active objects in Obliterator-X so that they stand out better. Unfortunately it needs to be done manually to each frame which means a lot of work.

What do people think - worth doing or not?

Been working on something different this week. A spreading infection-like system using arrays with BFS and frontier tracking, which allows it to run smoothly even in HUGE levels 💪

How cool is this?

I managed to convince Rotting Christ to let me use one of their tracks for the opening title in Obliterator-X!!!

This is what you end up with when your first game is a chill, wholesome puzzler and you want to make something completely different for the next one!

Demo's available in #NextFest

A bit of a boring post (hey, that's #gamedev!), but after reading through feedback from the O-X demo, the first update will include:

- rebinding
- aim assist
- auto-aim
- one-handed mode
- joystick switching

...and longer time in the first level!

Just discovered that Bluesky doesn't work with gifs 🤪 Anyway, here's some of my favourite animations from Bilkins' Folly #pixelart #animation #ドット絵
